The building at 65 Worcester Street was originally the Bigelow Tavern. The tavern was built in the 1770s by Deacon Amariah Bigelow for his son Abel, who was the first innkeeper. Later the property was owned for a time by Ezra Beaman, West Boylston's founder and landlord of the other inn in town. At that time his grandson, Ezra Bigelow (Abel's nephew) was the proprietor. It was then run for years by the Temple family and then by the Spoffords - all Bigelow descendants.
